Believe Me, We Earthlings Will Never Colonize Mars!

Sure, for an astronaut to walk on Mars would be an amazing and profound experience. But visiting the planet to expand the frontier of our knowledge is very different from living there permanently by forming bases and colonies. Mars is not made for humans. Mars will get you!
And now I will explain why we will never colonize mars...

Why Colonizing The Solar System Will Remain Only A Dream

Why I Believe In The Parallel Universes

Elon Musk thinks Mars is like Earth? But who would like to live in underground tunnels lit by anti-depression lamps, feeding on lettuce grown under UV lights?
The Red Planet is a cold, empty place, with an atmosphere about 100 times thinner than Earth’s. The paltry amount of air that does exist on Mars is primarily composed of noxious carbon dioxide, which does little to protect the surface from the Sun’s harmful rays.
The thin atmosphere also means that heat cannot be retained at the surface. The average temperature on Mars is -63 degrees Celsius, with temperatures dropping as low as -126.

Hi guys, if you liked this video, share it on your social networks (Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok etc.) and you will help the Insane Curiosity community to increase scientific content. Thanks

Mars is one of those places you might want to go to just to say you've been there, but within a few days you just want to go home.

[lawrencenannes]

Thank for giving earthlings a good dose of reality❤

[sierrannomad]

Okay, comeback in 20 years and checkout the comments section.

I read the National Geographic for the Moon Landing. They were talking Mars missions in the 1980’s. They got to the Moon so fast, they didn’t realize how difficult not to mention expensive space travel is.

[martingeerars]

Perhaps we should try the moon first. At least it's only 3 days away

As Neil deGrasse Tyson said: "If we were able to terraform Mars into Earth than why not terraform Earth into Earth?" (for all here who don't get it: this is meant concerning climate change 😉)

[frankkolmann]

Agree with Neil. Here are some simple steps to do in increasing difficulty to achieve before Mars colonisation. Note that Mars is exponentially more difficult.
1. Colonise Central Australia.
2. Colonise Mojave Desert
3. Colonise Gobi Desert
4. Colonise Sahara Desert
5. Colonise Atacama Desert
6 Colonise Antarctica
7. Colonise Moon
8. Colonise Mars (good luck you will need it)

[SOLIDSNAKE.]

I've always said this.. People imagine the worst desert on earth and its infinitely worse than that

[ScottBFree]

Glad to finally hear someone with a realistic view of Mars colonization.

About 1/2 difficult as to are stating in your video:
First you're wrong about the gravity: it's between 38 and 39%, not 33. Second ...completely fallacious comparing Earth and Mars temperatures....even below 100 F the problem on Mars would be overheating in a pressure suit not getting cold.... Ask your self what's the difference between placing your hand in ice water vs 32° air, divide that cold air effect by 100 and you'll see how little the cold would affect you. Water is in the soil in mid-upper latitudes, not far north. Perchlorates can be removed from Martian soil by perchlorate eating bacteria...and in the process give off Oxygen gas. Radiation exposure on the ISS can be as high as 1000 millisieverts for every six month period and as high as 400 millisieverts on the Martin surface. This is not to say that exposure on Mars isn't a problem, but it's one that can be mitigated with certain technologies.
Living and growing plants underground
LOUD BUZZER NOISE! got that one wrong too. There are a number of (albeit self enclosed) home and building structures with natural lighting that have already been proven out here on Earth. These structures can be automatically 3-D printed using matian regolith. Too frustrating to stay subscribed you folks....if memory serves you're the ones who reported a velocity that was one or two orders of magnitude off from the actual.
Am outta here.

We cannot overcome the low gravity and the lack of a magnetosphere.

[botwitaprice]

Thanks for making a realistic Prorail of science in space; perhaps our energies should be concentrated in making life more bearable on Earth

[reidmalenfant]

Humans used to sail numerous months on rat infested ships surrounded by endless water. There’s always a special breed of people that are psychologically designed for this kind of harsh living.

[Cenotaur]

Attempting to live on Mars is suicidal. I don't think the reward justifies the risk.

[aliboyaliboy]

so true, we even haven't set foot on the moon yet . . . .

[josephbarbera]

I will stay on this gorgeous planet called Earth and will never leave it nor will it ever enter my mind to do so. Be my guess, you can have Mars, I’ll take Earth. Thank you.

[ultrad-rex]

I agree. I think a lot of people are too optimistic about colonizing Mars. The chances of Mars being habitable are pretty tiny. Mars contains an extremely low temperature, high concentrations of toxic chemicals, lethal amounts of radiation, an insufficient amount of water, a barely existent magnetic field, and an atmosphere that is 1% of Earth's. Not to sound like an asshole, but people who listen to science and logic would fully understand why colonization on Mars is a very small chance. If we live on Mars in large domes, then it is possible to live on Mars, but nowhere near like living on Earth.

[battlebornsupermoto]

We are explorer's! The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience!

Hope the downvotes don't bother you. What you're saying is totally legitimate and people should hear it. Liked/subbed.
